Welcome to the magical world of The Baby-Sitters Club!  In this ongoing class, we will meet weekly to discuss these fantastic books and characters.  Please note that each class can be taken separately and does not build on any other classes, so you can drop in and out as needed!

The "Baby-Sitters Club” novels are incredibly popular, and have spawned generations of fans.  In recent years, several of these books have been re-written in a graphic novel format.  In each class, we will focus on one particular book in the graphic novel series through a combination of teacher-led and student-led discussion.  Discussion is only focused on that book and does not build on previous books, therefore students can enroll at any point and not be behind.  I will begin each class with a fun Q&A activity tied to that week's reading, and then we will discuss the characters and plot from the week's selection.  I highly encourage interaction and participation in my classes, while also being mindful of those who are not comfortable participating.  Although no prior knowledge is needed, students will most likely enjoy this class more if they have read the selected book each week.
